Question

A set of 6 art books costs $241.25. A copy of one of the books, bought separately, costs $38.25. About how much less is the cost of the 6 books if you buy the set?

Answer 1

The cost of the 6 books if you buy the set is $11.75 less.

The given parameters:

• Total number of books, n = 6
• Cost of the books, c = $241.25
• Cost of one book, = $38.25

The total cost of the 6 books when bought separately is calculated as follows;

Cost = 6 x $38.25

Cost = $229.5

The difference in price is calculated as follows;

= $241.25 - $229.5

= $11.75

Thus, the cost of the 6 books if you buy the set is $11.75 less.
